lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the European Union is actually blest with one effective security policy, and that is the common agricultural policy. For many years now this policy has guaranteed food security for the Community as a whole and for its citizens, nations and countries. Food security is vital to them all. Europe has now satisfied its hunger, but it has an unfortunate tendency to forget how this came about and thanks to whom. The common agricultural policy is under attack and has become a testing ground for irresponsible reforms such as the reform of the sugar market, as a result of which Europe is soon to become dependent on the rest of the world for sugar supplies. Protection of European agricultural markets is being phased out, as our farmers are all too aware. In Poland, the fruit producers are the ones who have been most affected. Ill-considered cuts in the common agricultural policy will result in the collapse of food security, which is crucial to security in Europe as a whole. There is still time to prevent this happening, but the political approach to agricultural issues must change. Banners carried by Polish agricultural workers’ organisations often feature slogans referring to the part food production played in the long struggle for Poland’s independence, as well as their willingness to fight. As we debate and decide on agricultural matters we should always remember that it is the farmers who feed and defend us, and that they are the real guardians of Europe’s security."@en1
